-------------------------------------------
BeanUtils 1.8.2 has been released which fixes this - should be available in the
next 24hrs (takes time for all the mirrors to sync up)

> NullPointerException in BeanUtilsBean .setProperty(), line: 930
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: BEANUTILS-368
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEANUTILS-368
> Project: Commons BeanUtils
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Bean / Property Utils
> Affects Versions: 1.8.1
> Environment: JDK 1.6
> Reporter: Peter Fassev
> Assignee: Niall Pemberton
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 1.8.2
>
>
> There is a NullPointerException in the method
> BeanUtilsBeans.setProperty(Object bean, String name, Object value) method:
> java.lang.NullPointerException
> at
> org.apache.commons.beanutils.BeanUtilsBean.setProperty(BeanUtilsBean.java:930)
> The problem is, that few rows earlear the target may be null:
> target = getPropertyUtils().getProperty(target,
> resolver.next(name)); // NOTE, the result may be NULL.
> In such case, the condition at line 930
> } else if (target.getClass().isArray() && index >= 0) {
> will race a NullPointerException. In the old 1.7.0 version there has been no
> such condition or has been executed later...
> Proposed FIX: Please add at new line, which checks the "target"
> target = getPropertyUtils().getProperty(target, resolver.next(name));
> // NOTE, the result may be NULL.
> if (target == null) {
> return;
> }
> NOTE. Such check may be added also to the other similar methods, like
> BeanUtilsBean.copyProperty().
> Regards
> Peter
